What is Hackers' Pub?

Gen AI found the biz model.

step 1: subsidize code generation so everyone forgets how to read/write code manually

step 2: many shops fire software dev and IT folks who know how to write code to save money

step 3: now charge 10x to 50x to ensure the AI generated code by that most humans largely can't understand actually works and cause outages

step 4: announce new code fix service that even cost more to fix AI mess

this is like donuts & weight loss/dietitian biz working out of same office

It took me about two weeks to become reasonably effective at “agentic coding”.

It took me years to become a good software engineer and I’m still learning how to be a computer scientist. I think about that a lot when people tell me we should radically change our curriculum to get “up to date” with industrial practice of AI in software engineering.

We should teach the thing that is hard to learn on your own. Anyone with £200 and a couple weeks on their hands can become an expert in agentic coding, if they happen to know something about coding in the first place.

Technology is not inevitable. We've decided not to have asbestos in our walls, lead in our pipes, or carginogenic chemicals in our food. (If you're going to argue that it's not everywhere, where would you rather live?) We could just not do LLMs. It's allowed.

From what I've observed, people who claim that LLMs can replace artists don't understand art, people who claim that they can replace musicians don't understand music, people who claim that they can replace writers don't understand literature, and people who claim they can replace translators don't rely on translations. If I had a button that would erase LLMs from the world but it would take machine translations away (which is a false dichotomy anyway), I would absolutely still press it.

Machine translations are often brought up as a gotcha whenever I criticize LLMs. It's worth pointing out two things: Machine translations existed decades before LLMs, and yes, machine translations are useful. However: I would never in my life read a machine translated book. Understanding what a social media post is talking about in rough terms? Sure. Literature? Absolutely not. Hell, have you ever seen machine translated subtitles? It's absolute garbage.

I'm writing this in English.

Not because English is my first language—it isn't. I'm writing this in English because if I wrote it in Korean, the people I'm addressing would run it through an outdated translator, misread it, and respond to something I never said. The responsibility for that mistranslation would fall on me. It always does.

This is the thing Eugen Rochko's post misses, despite its good intentions.

@GargronEugen Rochko argues that LLMs are no substitute for human translators, and that people who think otherwise don't actually rely on translation. He's right about some of this. A machine-translated novel is not the same as one rendered by a skilled human translator. But the argument rests on a premise that only makes sense from a certain position: that translation is primarily about quality, about the aesthetic experience of reading literature in another language.

For many of us, translation is first about access.

The professional translation market doesn't scale to cover everything. It never has. What gets translated—and into which languages—follows the logic of cultural hegemony. Works from dominant Western languages flow outward, translated into everything. Works from East Asian languages trickle in, selectively, slowly, on someone else's schedule. The asymmetry isn't incidental; it's structural.

@GargronEugen Rochko notes, fairly, that machine translation existed decades before LLMs. But this is only half the story, and which half matters depends entirely on which languages you're talking about. European language pairs were reasonably serviceable with older tools. Korean–English, Japanese–English, Chinese–English? Genuinely usable translation for these pairs arrived with the LLM era. Treating “machine translation” as a monolithic technology with a uniform history erases the experience of everyone whose language sits far from the Indo-European center.

There's also something uncomfortable in the framing of the button-press thought experiment: “I would erase LLMs even if it took machine translation with it.” For someone whose language has always been peripheral, that button looks very different. It's not an abstract philosophical position; it's a statement about whose access to information is expendable.

I want to be clear: none of this is an argument that LLMs are good, or that the harms @GargronEugen Rochko describes aren't real. They are. But a critique of AI doesn't become more universal by ignoring whose languages have always been on the margins. If anything, a serious critique of AI's political economy should be more attentive to those asymmetries, not less.

The fact that I'm writing this in English, carefully, so it won't be misread—that's not incidental to my argument. That is my argument.

Ghostty 1.3 is out!

Bought my first Framework laptop. Two things I want to note:

1. I’ve owned laptops from three different brands (Samsung, Apple, Framework) and in terms of quality nothing beats Apple’s MacBook so far.

2. The wireless card (MediaTek MT7925) is horrible. I’m not sure if that’s hardware or driver issue, but the network disconnects too frequently (e.g. git pull, browser, etc). Linux 6.19 received some patches for MT7925. I’ll test the new kernel in a few days and if it’s still broken I’m gonna fix the issue. It could be my first linux kernel contribution, although I wanna stay away from touching linux kernel code.

My new Framework laptop + Fedora system will be used for cross-platform kernel debugging work and low-level/virtualization stuff while my FreeBSD workstation is at the foundation’s office.

Meaning you can mix different limits (including unlimited) on the same HTTP/2 connection.
